Envelopes and the bar complex
Abstract
This paper is intended as a reference for some basic theory for dg categories and their bar complexes. Our modest goal is to carefully record the most important envelope operations can one perform on dg categories (in which one adjoins shifts, finite direct sums, or twists) and the inescapable sign rules that appear when combining these with opposite categories, tensor products, and the bar resolution. An appendix collects some theory of categorical idempotents that is useful when discussing bar complexes.
